This is the most popular recipe on the site.
I get over 500 emails a week from delighted smoothie drinkers who are obsessed with this smoothie since I featured it in The Blender Girl cookbook.
Sun Cafe, my favorite local raw restaurant, won SeriousEats.com's Best Smoothie in L.A. award for a blend that's similar to this one. I'm not sure exactly what they put in their award-winner, but this is pretty close. One taste and you'll understand why kale- phobic omnivores line up and even double- park in front of SunCafe to run in and get their fill.
This is the Holy Grail of Kale.
Tastes-Like-Ice-Cream Kale Green Smoothie
- 1 cup (240mls) filtered water
- 1/2 teaspoon probiotic powder (optional)
- 1 cup (25g) torn-up curly green kale leaves
- 1/2 cup (70g) raw unsalted cashews, soaked
- 2 medium-sized bananas
- 1/4 cup (43g) firmly packed chopped pitted dates, soaked, plus more to taste
- Pinch of Celtic sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 2 cups (250g) ice cubes
Optional Boosters
- 1 tablespoon flax oil
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon wheatgrass powder
Throw all of the ingredients into your blender and blast on high for 30 to 60 seconds until smooth and creamy.

When British graffiti artist Banksy began his "residency" in New York City earlier this month, hedge fund manager Nelson Saiers made him an offer: Paint a mural to raise awareness of those still affected by Hurricane Sandy, and he'd donate $100,000 to rebuilding efforts.
And while Banksy has produced a new work just about every day during October, a Sandy-themed piece has yet to appear. But Saiers has decided to go ahead with his gift to World Vision, which seeks to help underprivileged children in areas battered by the storm, which made landfall in New Jersey one year ago today.
"As the anniversary of Hurricane Sandy is upon us, I've decided to waive the criterion on my original letter and will donate the original $100,000 to World Vision to benefit underprivileged children in Sandy-affected areas," Saiers wrote. But the Saiers Capital chief hasn't given up on Banksy, whose "residency" has a couple more days to run.
"At this point, the anonymous donors are waiting to see if you will accept the original offer before donating the remaining $142,000. As art is subjective, if you have already completed a piece fulfilling the requirement please contact me. Speaking of great art, during your residency if you haven't seen Swoon's Hurricane Sandy mural you should check it out. She's doing an amazing thing."
Hurricane Sandy devastated coastal areas of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, including Manhattan's financial district, closing the New York Stock Exchange and the city's public-transportation system, and doing some $70 billion in damage.

But it is the character of Giuliana that drives the film. She seems to possess an integrity in her suffering that sets her apart. Antonioni seems to be searching her soul as he allows the camera to dwell on her expressions of hurt and desperation (as Godard did with Anna Karina). And Monica Vitti is so beautiful that it is ultimately painful to watch her. But as for the standard opinion - the only people who could be bored by this film are those who are bored with feeling itself. This is a masterpiece of observed sensitivity - a study of the heart's war on consciousness. It must be seen.
The Italian modernist director was known for his radical new style, not following any convention of filmmaking and most of all, characters and events are disconnected. Known for his trilogy, beginning with "L'avventura" (1960), the film was an international success and would introduce the world to the actress Monica Vitti, a woman who would appear as the main character in several of his films. Antonioni returned with "La Notte" (1961) starring Jeanne Moreau, Marcello Mastroianni and Monica Vitti which focused on the slow death of a marriage and final of the trilogy "L'Eclisse" would focus on the alienation of man in the modern world.
"Red Desert" is the fourth and final film that Antonioni's muse Monica Vitti would be featured in a film of his (the director would move on to focus his film on a male character). The film would also feature the director filming in color for the first time.
"Red Desert" is presented in 1080p (1:85:1 Aspect Ratio). According to Criterion, the new HD transfer for "Red Desert" was created on a Spirit HD 2K Datacine from the original 35mm camera negative. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, scratches, splices, warps, jitter and flicker were manually removed using MTI's DRS system and Pixel Farm's PFClean system, while Digital Vision's DVNR system was used for small dirt, grain and noise reduction.
It's important to note that Antonioni wanted to capture a certain look.Read more ›
The special features on this issue are unusually valuable: an interview with Antonioni, shortly after the film's release; an interview with Monica Vitti about her work and her relationship with him, which was supposedly first shown on French television in 1991, but which surely must have been done earlier, because there is no mention of his tragically debilitating stroke; good prints of Antonioni's two early neo-realist documentaries, which already show his care of visual composition; and some black and white dailies, which highlight Antonion's care in composition and the light and shadow substrate of his brilliant use of color. These features have added immeasurably to my understanding of a film, which only improves with time. Thank you Criterion!

Holiday Photo Cards: How to Take the Best Shots
January 21, 2014 •
Holiday photo cards are a popular way to share the festive spirit with family and friends. Rather than sending a generic greeting card, this is a more intimate way to send holiday cheer. Here are a few tips and tricks that can help you to capture the best holiday photos for the perfect holiday greeting cards.
Set Up Your Location
It works best if the style of the card is selected first. This allows you to shoot photos that are oriented to the layout of the card. The next step is to choose a location for the photos to be taken that will provide a textured backdrop with minimal distractions so the focus will be on the people in the photo. If a color scheme for the photos has been chosen, the background should offer pleasing color contrasts to coordinate with the attire of the people in the photos. Any furniture that will be used in the photos should be organized beforehand and debris should be swept away.
Arrange Your Photo Subjects
When choosing an outfit for each family member, avoid busy prints and patterns or all white. The outfits should be coordinated, but not exactly the same. Everyone should be comfortable and relaxed, with the larger people towards the back and the children at the front. It's ideal to have people arranged at various levels in comfortable stances with hands folded or behind the body. To avoid the look of extra weight, lower bodies should be turned to the side and upper bodies rotated slightly towards the camera. If the camera lens is at eye level or slightly above, and chins are tipped out, this will help to avoid the look of a double chin.
Use Natural Light to Your Advantage
If possible, photos should be taken in natural light with the sun behind the photographer. Multiple shots should be taken from various angles in quick succession. The best photos take place when the light from the sun creates a warm, dramatic glow, bathing the subject in soft light. Red eye can be avoided by having the subjects look into a light source to cause the pupils of the eyes to shrink.
Sort, Edit and Pick Your Favorite
After multiple shots have been taken, the photos can be sorted through and then edited to add warm tones, create textured frames and even add a touch of color to the cheeks of the photo's subjects. The best photos are the least posed and most natural.
By applying these tips, you can capture just the right photo for this year's holiday card.

But there's a clear winner from the innovation race: American Tower AMT -0.8162571209931129% American Tower REIT U.S.: NYSE USD116.65 -0.96 -0.8162571209931129% /Date(1469739629333-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2111827 AFTER HOURS USD116.65 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 64163 P/E Ratio 75.74675324675324 Market Cap 49940146509.1705 Dividend Yield 1.8174024860694384% Rev. per Employee 1477710 More quote details and news » (AMT). The Boston-based company is the world's largest operator of cell towers, leasing antenna space to every major carrier in the U.S. and Latin America. And, since more antennas mean more-reliable networks, American Tower is in an admirable position.
American Tower's revenue is already swelling. Rent at its U.S. towers rose 12% in the third quarter, the fastest rate in five years. Total sales are forecast to grow 20% in 2014, to $3.99 billion, driving net income up 46%, to $922 million. Jim Taiclet, American Tower's long-time CEO, tells Barron's that it's the best environment he's seen in years. "We've got four legitimate carriers deploying 4G in the U.S., all working at the same time on a pretty aggressive schedule," he says.
They're all striving to meet the booming demand for wireless bandwidth. Cisco Systems estimates that mobile-data traffic will grow 56% a year in North America through 2017, thanks largely to the influx of video being delivered to smartphones and tablets. Customers are now adding multiple devices to each account. With 326 million active connections; the U.S. wireless penetration rate was 102% at the end of 2012, according to industry lobbyist CTIA.
While American Tower is a clear beneficiary of the startling growth in mobile technology, it's insulated from the usual high-flier risks. American Tower owns 57,000 towers across the world; about two-thirds of sales come from the U.S., with Mexico, Brazil, and India making up most of the rest. The company signs carriers to long-term leases, which include annual price hikes. In 2012, American Tower converted to a real-estate investment trust, which affords significant tax savings. Investors essentially get a high-tech growth company secured by a solid real-estate portfolio.
American Tower says its average U.S. tower has 2.6 "tenants," or carriers, with room for four to five. That's more growing space than at the typical commercial REIT, where occupancy generally hovers over 90%, says Eric Frankel, an analyst at REIT specialist Green Street Advisors.
By REIT standards, American Tower is a behemoth. Its $31 billion market value makes it the second-largest REIT behind mall owner Simon Property Group SPG 1.0690121786197564% Simon Property Group Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD224.07 2.37 1.0690121786197564% /Date(1469739820971-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 905722 AFTER HOURS USD224.07 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 17883 P/E Ratio 40.82164328657315 Market Cap 68597747197.9706 Dividend Yield 2.9455081001472756% Rev. per Employee 1075640 More quote details and news » (SPG). Yet, the REIT world has been slow to embrace American Tower. The company is not yet included in the top REIT indices, including the much-used industry benchmark MSCI U.S. REIT index. Eventually, it will find its way into the index, which should drive additional demand for the shares.
The Bottom Line
A push to improve service by the four big U.S. wireless carriers is driving demand for tower space, which could lift American Tower's shares 20%.
American Tower analysts spend most of their time looking at a cash-flow metric called adjusted funds from operations. AFFO, which adds depreciation to net income and subtracts capital expenses, is forecast to grow 19% next year and another 14% in 2015. At a recent $78, American Tower trades at 18 times next year's forecast of $4.34. Strong industry trends could push the multiple slightly higher a year from now. At 19 times 2015 estimates, the stock would be worth $94. It yields 1.5%.
DESPITE THE GOOD NEWS, American Tower has sorely trailed the broad market this year, up just 2% in 2013, versus 27% for the S&P 500. Industry consolidation has always been a risk to American Tower, because it cuts back on its customers base, in theory, at least. A week ago, The Wall Street Journal reported No. 3 carrier Sprint (S) was looking into buying T-Mobile US (TMUS), the No. 4 player. The deal would have a steep regulatory hurdle, and incompatible technology means it would likely take years for the carriers to find synergies in their infrastructure. In the meantime, they are under pressure to improve their networks, which means more tower locations.
Overseas operations also tend to make investors nervous. In July, research firm Muddy Waters warned about American Tower's international portfolio. It recommended investors short the stock. American Tower immediately clarified the issue, which involved accounting for international acquisitions. The market has since shrugged off the report. Just 2% of the stock is held short, versus an 8% short position for SBA Communications SBAC -0.2394678492239468% SBA Communications Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD112.48 -0.27 -0.2394678492239468% /Date(1469739600384-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 963069 AFTER HOURS USD112.48 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 9133 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 14152831233.9783 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1242860 More quote details and news » (SBAC), American Tower's smaller rival.
The company isn't randomly buying towers across the world. It has anchored its operations in Latin America, where it has solid relationships with wireless giants Telefónica and América Móvil.
American Tower recently returned its focus to the U.S. In October, it closed a $4.8 billion deal for a private tower group called Global Tower Partners. The acquisition improves American Tower's position in San Francisco and New York. Those are the same big markets, it so happens, where Verizon is racing to improve its coverage.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
In the taut latest from Enright (What Are You Like?), middle-aged Veronica Hegarty, the middle child in an Irish-Catholic family of nine, traces the aftermath of a tragedy that has claimed the life of rebellious elder brother Liam. As Veronica travels to London to bring Liam's body back to Dublin, her deep-seated resentment toward her overly passive mother and her dissatisfaction with her husband and children come to the fore. Tempers flare as the family assembles for Liam's wake, and a secret Veronica has concealed since childhood comes to light. Enright skillfully avoids sentimentality as she explores Veronica's past and her complicated relationship with Liam. She also bracingly imagines the life of Veronica's strong-willed grandmother, Ada. A melancholic love and rage bubbles just beneath the surface of this Dublin clan, and Enright explores it unflinchingly. (Sept.)

From Booklist
*Starred Review* The blessing and the curse of family bonds have been addressed by some of our best writers, perhaps never so movingly as by William Kennedy in his Albany cycle of novels. Now Irish novelist Enright, whose intense lyrical style recalls Kennedy's, gives full voice to another tale of familial agony: Veronica's grief in the wake of her wayward brother Liam's suicide. Past and present merge as Veronica recalls their childhood growing up in Dublin in a family of 14, with never enough money or enough attention from their overburdened parents. She's convinced it all went wrong when Liam was sexually abused by a family friend, and her recollections of that day alternate with sunnier ones of their endless roughhousing and joking. When Liam drowned himself, with a tide of "blood, sea water and whiskey" running in his veins, he took Veronica's sense of purpose with him. Inconsolable, and suffering from insomnia, she spends her evenings driving and writing, trying to come to terms with the fact that "someone you love is dead, and the world is full of people you don't." Enright's hypnotic prose turns her desperation into something fierce and beautiful.

The first-person narrative is told in a stream-of-consciousness manner from Veronica's perspective. She flits backwards and forwards in time, exploring her family's dark history. She goes as far back as her grandparent's generation as she tries to unravel the story. During the course of the book, which spans Liam's death through to his funeral, Veronica traces the history of the family. But through this we glimpse Veronica's obsessions and see how her personality has been slightly damaged by her rough-and-tumble crowded childhood. Her pain and her anguish is never expressed to the outside world (she cannot even communicate with her husband), but is buried deep inside where it finds expression in Veronica's self-loathing. If nothing else, The Gathering is a portrait of a lost woman coming to grips with her past, her present and her future.
Help raise awareness; support cancer research!
Veronica's crisis centres on Liam, her favourite brother who has died in untoward circumstances. She wants to tell his story, yet finds it difficult to come to terms with who he has become since their intimate childhood years. Did his troubled life commence with an event she recalls observing when she was nine and he eleven at their gran's? Did it actually happen or is her memory playing tricks? Did something happen to her too at that time? In her reminiscences of that carefree long summer holiday with Liam and younger sister Kitty at their grandmother's, a dark cloud was hanging over them. Enright contrasts this special summer with the usual life in the Hegarty family: "Mammy" always pregnant, the father rarely seen around the increasingly large family. Poverty is hinted at in many ways, without being overplayed. Among Vee's shorter or longer introductions of her large family, Ada, the grandmother, stands out as the most important character.Read more ›
I have no trouble following metaphors, flickers between periods, brash tones, peculiar narration, expression with a flourish, anything outside the box. Neither do I mind taking time to reach the crux. I know the power of explaining the root of an outcome, so readers value the impact it has in the future or present. However I disliked how the elements were put together here. Sexuality is important and I enjoy its treatment in books. Although I applaud the effort of this one to present biology bluntly; the musings were bizarre, always seemed out of place, and only resulted in me being disgusted.
If we spilled our guts uncensored, anyone would sound sick in the head. Some fragments made sense: remembering a fly near a deceased Grandparent, the hesitation of his wife to squash it. Otherwise, ugliness and disordered time frames bog you down, if you don't care for any characters. Leaping between all three tenses, even to illustrate why Veronica and Liam functioned as they did; removed the sense of getting anywhere. Absence of chronology harmed the book and after trudging through tangents, the gathering solely occurred in a few pages. This is entirely about Veronica spurting thoughts. It all felt comprised of run-on sentences, none reaching me personally. Anne made some excellent points: we're always going home, or away from it. She's supremely capable of conveying things well. I'm glad for others to enjoy the narration more than I did.

State grantees plugging away with FirstNet stakeholder meetings, says NTIA
Since being awarded $116 million in federal grants in 2013, states and territories have been preparing for formal consultations with the First Responder Network Authority, the board tasked with overseeing the development of a nationwide, wireless broadband public safety network.
The National Telecommunications and Information Administration's state and local implementation grant program, or SLIGP, is leading that effort, helping grantees with outreach to public safety and state and local officials to determine their needs, gaps and priorities for public safety wireless broadband, according to the agency.
"As of September 2014, recipients across the nation have reached more than 48,000 stakeholders," writes SLIGP program director Mike Dame in a Dec. 23, 2014 blog post.
His team has visited state grantees and begun compiling and sharing lessons learned into best practices.
"States have developed a variety of approaches to ensure they are reaching the appropriate stakeholders in their state from developing websites and social media pages to distributing newsletters and email updates," writes Dame.
He adds that Florida has hosted eight "listening sessions" to solicit feedback on its network rollout, Massachusetts has held 10 information sessions and Iowa grantees have thus far visited 60 of the state's 90 counties for consultations.

According to court documents, a former Baylor basketball player who pleaded guilty to killing his teammate two years ago told authorities that he thought people were trying to kill him because he "is Jesus, the Son of God."
Carlton Dotson, 23, was sentenced to 35 years in prison Wednesday, a week after he unexpectedly pleaded guilty to murdering his teammate, Patrick Dennehy, 21, two years ago.
Instead of hearing from witnesses Wednesday, state District Judge Ralph Strother made his decision based on documents filed by prosecutors and defense attorneys.
Part of the prosecution's report included FBI documents detailing Dotson's confession, in which he said "a higher power told him to talk to the FBI" and told authorities where to look for Dennehy. The body was found a few days later.
He told FBI agents that one day Dennehy pointed a gun at him after the pair went to gravel pits for target practice. When Dennehy's gun jammed, Dotson said "Father, please forgive me," and shot his friend. He then went to pack his belongings, called a relative to wire him money and drove home to Maryland, throwing the gun in a lake along the way.
But the autopsy doesn't support his self-defense claim. Dennehy was shot twice: once above the right ear and once behind it toward the back of the head.

JPMorgan Follows UBS Cutting Carbon Jobs as Permits Plunge
Investment banks are cutting traders and analysts in climate-related businesses as a slump in shares and carbon emission permits coincides with a deadlock in international climate talks.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. Managing Director for Environmental Markets Odin Knudsen left his post in New York by mutual accord after his team was shrunk, while UBS Securities LLC fired Vice Chairman Jon Anda and his Climate Policy Group co-workers, Anda and Knudsen said in interviews. Ben Lynch left his London job as a renewables equity analyst for Commerzbank AG and his workload has been taken on by his former colleague on the renewables team, company spokeswoman Claire Tappenden said. The departures took place since September.
The biggest banks, trying to recover from trading losses and a clampdown on investing their own money, are clipping resources from emissions-related businesses as United Nations talks have failed for years to extend Kyoto Protocol greenhouse-gas curbs beyond their expiration in 2012. The International Emissions Trading Association, the main carbon-market trade group, has seen its membership slide about 6 percent this year.
"People are leaving the industry because they've been fired or because they see no prospects," said Emmanuel Fages, head of energy research for Europe at Societe Generale SA in Paris. "That is the sad story."
Climate Talks
Fages said he used to work full-time on carbon at the French bank's emissions trading unit Orbeo and the industry now occupies about 20 percent of his time.
JPMorgan spokesman Brian Marchiony declined to comment.
UBS officials confirmed Anda's departure and declined to give details about his department. "Jon Anda has left the bank and is seeking new opportunities," UBS's New York-based spokesman Christiaan Brakman said in an e-mailed response to questions. "UBS remains committed to address climate change."
The Kyoto emissions caps for industrialized nations, which underpin carbon trading, are set to end in December 2012 unless United Nations-led talks under way in South Africa produce an extension.
The UN said yesterday it is embarking on a yearlong study of how to improve its carbon offset program as officials from Brazil and China said it may shut down unless the Kyoto limits are extended.
Clean-power stocks and emission permits have plunged as the European Union, the biggest advocate for climate action among developed nations, is ravaged by its own sovereign debt crisis.
Carbon Plunge
Benchmark EU carbon permits lost 44 percent in the year through yesterday and fell to a record last week while the Bloomberg Industry solar energy index plunged 65 percent, damping investor demand for research and advisory services.
EU allowances for delivery this month fell 0.1 percent to 7.92 euros a metric ton today as of 11:07 a.m. on London´s ICE Futures Europe exchange. The Bloomberg Industry Global Leaders Large Solar Energy index fell 0.1 percent, headed for its first decline this week.
'Shakeouts, Departures'
"There are shakeouts and departures happening as you would expect to be the case during any market that was a little bit unsure about where it was going," Henry Derwent, president of the International Emissions Trading Association, said in a telephone interview. Carbon trading "is currently suffering, as so many other markets are, from low economic activity in the main area which is the European Union."
About 10 institutions have withdrawn from the Geneva-based trade group this year, cutting membership to about 150 companies, spokeswoman Noria Mezlef said.
EU countries, which subsidize clean energy and bought more than 80 percent of solar panels last year as well as running the biggest carbon market, are facing pressure to rein in budget deficits as investors dump their sovereign debt. The turmoil wracking the bloc has hurt photovoltaic equipment stocks and businesses that service that industry.
"It been a tough time for everyone doing solar," John Hardy, who lost his job in New York as an alternative energy analyst at Gleacher & Co. in August, said in an interview. "Market capitalizations have dropped to a point where funds can't touch these little companies."
He said he expects some of his colleagues and competitors will also be let go because the market valuation of the industry can no longer sustain their research.
Trading Volumes
Dennis Mignon left his job as a carbon trader at First Climate in Bad Vilbel, Germany, to trade government bonds at DZ Bank AG in Frankfurt, he said last week.
The value of carbon trading fell 8 percent to 23.7 billion euros ($32 billion) in the third quarter from the previous three months as the price of European emission permits tumbled, according to New Energy Finance data.
UBS shut its climate-change advisory practice and fired its staff after the Swiss bank lost $2.3 billion from unauthorized trading this year.
JPMorgan, which sold its ClimateCare carbon offset developer to the unit's management in August, tied for second place producing new credits last year, behind Vitol Group and alongside Climate Change Capital Ltd., according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance data.
The New York bank cut back its environmental markets team to just "a few" people compared with several "tens" of people around the world at its height, Knudsen said in an interview.
Orbeo Sale
Societe Generale said Nov. 25 it agreed to sell its 50 percent stake in carbon trading joint venture Orbeo to its partner Solvay SA. The Paris-based lender will develop emissions trading as part of its gas and power business, deputy head of commodities Jonathan Whitehead said in a telephone interview.
"The emissions market, whatever shape or form it ends up continuing in, is going to be an important part of our offering for our clients," he said Nov. 25. "The emissions market goes hand in hand with the power market in Europe."
A record 1.5 billion tons of EU carbon permits was traded on the ICE Futures Europe exchange from July to September even as the price slump cut the value of the transactions, exchange data show. Trade in UN carbon credits was a record 348 million tons in the same period.
Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. handled a record 9.85 million tons of carbon futures in November, the company said yesterday.

Campus Housing:
The dorm rooms are very small. Last year at the Harshman the fire alarms kept going off all the time, What a pain. I hope we don't go thru that again at the Kreischer. The cost of the small rooms I believe is high. Sharing a bathroom and a small box for 2600.00. I wish there was a better way to do the housing choice. I really wanted a bathroom in my room but nothing was available. Should have a limit of rooms per day for choosing.
Campus Housing:
Campus housing is what you make it. Some dorms are nicer than others, but they do all promote community building and helps you to get to know others. A lot of the dorms have you in a smaller living area.
Campus Housing:
The housing options are pretty average nothing extravagant
Campus Housing:
Living on campus is awesome. Kreischer is generally seen as the worse dorm, but I live there and it really isn't all that bad. The cost is a bit of a thing, but junior and senior year you can just live off campus. The process is extremely easy and I had no issues finding housing on campus.
Campus Housing:
no air conditioning in the dorm made it difficult in the summer to sleep.

I have this code that is giving me a headache:
/ original code removed, see current version below /
The message I receive:
*** -[__NSDate class]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x69fa350
To test it, I have moved everything into one method, and verified that it still produces the same error.
This is a splitView iPad app. A
voiceMemo object is passed by the left-side table view controller upon selection. The right side view has a tableView on its own, this is where I am loading the reminders.
What happens, is this:
Initially, everything loads correctly. Without any
reminder data in my database, I can select any entry, it loads correctly. I can delete them, modify them, etc.
I can select an entry with
reminder data, and it loads correctly. The table view in the detail view is correctly populated with data. However, trying to modify a
reminder, the program crashes: message sent to deallocated instance.
Without trying to modify any data, the program crashes if I try to load another entry WITH
reminder data.
I can delete entries which have no
reminder from the (left side) main table view, but when trying to delete one with
reminder data, it crashes (on the
save method). The next time I start the program, the entry is deleted, though.
The database and the custom classes are shared with the iPhone version, which works correctly.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
/* only relevant parts posted */
// Left-side label (title)
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [[[NSSortDescriptor alloc]
initWithKey:@"DBreminderDate" ascending:YES] autorelease];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = [NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor];
NSMutableArray *sortedReminders = [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray:
[voiceMemo.reminders allObjects]];
[sortedReminders sortUsingDescriptors:sortDescriptors];
self.remindersArray = sortedReminders;
AKReminder *reminder = [remindersArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = reminder.DBreminderTitle;
if ([cell.textLabel.text length] == 0) {
cell.textLabel.text = @"Reminder";
// Right-side label (date)
NSDateFormatter *format = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
NSLocale *locale = [[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_US"];
[format setLocale:locale];
[locale release];
NSDate *reminderSetTo = reminder.DBreminderDate;
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", [format
stringFromDate:reminderSetTo]]; // breaks here
return cell;

Science Evangelist is a term I've been seeing a lot of lately, and I really like it. Who rates usage of the term? Only some of the brightest stars in the science education community… Ainissa Ramirez (read about her on the TED blog) is one of my favorites, and I think just about everyone admires Neil deGrasse Tyson (who recently achieved Twitterati status). Steve Spangler is fun (he even wowed Ellen DeGeneres), and the newest but certainly not the least-inspiring person on my radar is Paul Andersen (2011 Montana Teacher of the Year, one of four finalists for the 2011 National Teacher of the Year, and YouTube Edu Guru). We were lucky enough to meet him at a recent conference, learned a lot about what's happening in the science ed community, and we're hoping to do so again at our National Conference in San Antonio this spring. They motivate students, other educators, parents, and our elected officials. These are shining examples of how we can inspire the next generation of scientists, and they personally keep me enthused about my job. I'm always on the look-out for fresh inspiration, so please share with me the notable names who should be on this list!
